This home was originally built in 1878 and has been thoughtfully restored while preserving many of its original details and charm. As is common with historic homes, you’ll notice some unique features such as slightly uneven floors between rooms, narrow spaces, and stairs that reflect the craftsmanship of the time. We love these quirks as they’re part of what makes the home so special however, they may not be ideal for guests seeking a modern, uniform layout or those with mobility concerns. If you appreciate historic character, you’ll feel right at home here!

About the host

Host profile image
Our Mystic home has been in our family for generations—a space filled with stories, slow mornings, and summers by the water. We’ve kept its character while creating a calm, modern, comfortable escape to share with others.

Why they chose this property

We chose the Seaport for its charm, history, and that unmistakable coastal New England feel. There’s something special about being able to walk through Mystic Seaport Museum, watch the boats drift by, and feel like you’ve stepped into a slower, simpler pace of life.

What we love most is how easy it is—quiet mornings, scenic walks, and being just minutes from the shops, restaurants, and waterfront in Mystic. It has that perfect balance of peaceful and lively, where you can truly unwind but still have so much to explore just around the corner.

What makes this property unique

We’ve designed it to feel like an easy escape—calm, inviting, and functional for real life, whether that’s slow mornings, family dinners, or unwinding after a day exploring Mystic.

It’s that balance of character, comfort, and location that makes it feel a little more personal than your typical stay.
